I have written one pseudo char driver. I have initialized the device generic structure
with cdev_init function. This will initialize the kobject structure embedded within struct cdev
with appropriate ktype. If I want to add this kobject in /sys/devices/virtual/misc/ location
of sysfs, how is the following fields set
* kobj->parent
* kobj->kset
* kobj->kset->obj.
Also, in general how to look out for the parent kobject ? Would like to know, if there are
mechanisms provisioned by Linux Kernel.
Robert: My 2 cents as I am reading the LKD(3rd edition), it would be appropriate to add one
example as a solution to the above problem. Generally, it has been told as
kobj->kset = my_kset in Page # 353.
Note: Even in LDD(3rd editon page 369). It has been mentioned that "The kobject's kset field must be
pointed at the kset of interest"
Thanks,
Prabhu
